Description
Solar cell device parameters cannot be obtained directly from measured current-voltage (I-V) characteristics as performance parameters such as power output are, but need to be extracted by curve-fitting procedures. This contribution describes and applies a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to extract solar cell device parameters from I-V curves.
